Donald Trump's campaign manager Paul Manafort resigns after two months of work

It just might be a sign that Donald Trump is finally losing the U.S
presidential election as his campaign manager Paul Manafort today
resigned, after just two months of being in the job.

Trump announced the news on Friday morning:

'This
morning Paul Manafort offered, and I accepted, his resignation from the
campaign. I am very appreciative for his great work in helping to get
us where we are today, and in particular his work guiding us through the
delegate and convention process. Paul is a true professional and I wish
him the greatest success.'

It's the second
high profile departure from the top of Trump's campaign structure after
campaign manager Corey Lewandowski left the operation earlier this
summer. Breitbart News chief Steve Bannon is the new campaign CEO while
Kellyanne Conway is the campaign manager.
